Product Description

This project is a project that I created for my all gifted 6th grade class, however, it can be altered and used in any 5th-8th grade classroom. This project is an open-ended, inquiry-based project, which allows for more critical and creative thinking. Within this project students will go through the process of creating their own "model product" and calculating how much money they would profit if they sold a certain number of products. After additional calculations and putting together their product model, the students will create a presentation to show off their new product as if they were selling it to a big discount store (Target perhaps?). This project is mulch-disciplinary because it requires mathematical thinking, language arts (using the persuasive elements in putting together a presentation, and economics/social studies). This project was a BIG HIT in my classroom, the students loved being able to be creative and took this project to whole new levels!
